Hey everyone,

I was playing around with @chauffeur_afni to create images and I noticed that for axial and coronal views in montages, the image is flipped such that left = right. I confirmed this by manually loading the dataset into AFNI and checking it out using the normal viewing windows. Attached are 2 images. The first is the montage output from @chauffeur_afni where I want you to focus on the pattern of activation in the last image on the bottom right. Then, the next image is a screenshot from AFNI showing clearly that the image in the @chauffeur_afni montage matches this left = right view. What's weird is that this problem occurs in the axial and coronal views output from @chauffeur_afni but the sagittal view is fine (i.e., left = left for that one).

Finally, here is my @chauffeur_afni code whereby I specify that left should be left:

# Finally, create montage for correlation images

# Set top directory and go to it
set topdir_corr =  /mnt/c/Users/brrobert/OneDriveUW/Desktop/fMRIdata/Correlation_Files

cd topdir_corr


# Set contrast label and brick numbers
set contrast_label = DW
set mean_brick_number = 4
set tstat_brick_number = 5
set min_cluster = 20


# Create new results output directory to store all of the correlation results in
set outputdir = ${topdir_corr}/${contrast_label}_Correlation_Images
if ( ! -d $outputdir ) mkdir $outputdir

# Create overlay montage image sets for this contrast
